Headlines: Soccer and Politics









Politico:

In Washington, the political epicenter of the U.S., soccer has become another lubricant for the all-important networking that oils the corridors of power. "It’s a great way to bond and build connections," said Adam Hodge, an Arsenal supporter and former spokesperson in the White House under President Joe Biden. "It lends itself to a mix of talking about work and talking about our clubs."

SportsLogos.net:

"Mainers, in particular, like the old ways. There’s a convergence of the old ways and the new ways here," [club executive creative director Burke] Cherrie said. "We don’t discard the past. That’s something that really resonated throughout the branding process. In town halls with supporters and local government officials, talking with people who run businesses, there was a desire for this to be as Maine as possible. And history and heritage are a key part of that."

Headlines: Rep. Golden, Blue Dog Coalition Roll Out Legislative Reforms









PPH:

Among the ideas it would study are expanding the size of the House of Representatives, which has held at 435 for nearly a century, requiring independent redistricting commissions and perhaps adopting multi-member districts that would be divvied up in proportion to the votes cast. "Americans on both sides are fed up with a political system that incentivizes division," Golden said in a press release put out this week by U.S. Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, a Washington Democrat.

Headlines: The State of Sports Gambling in the United States

 









Rolling Stone:

There’s some kind of profound irony in the fact that the gambling companies want to get rich off gambling, but don’t want to take any risks themselves. The government, the shareholders, the CEOs, they all want their money guaranteed. The rest of us, the real risk takers, we’re just looking for a fair bet at a good price.
